lirik lagu figgy duff - the greenland disaster (sealing song)
sad comes the news from over the sea, from over the troubling main
to fill the hearts of those they loved with sorrow and with pain
with sorrow and with pain
to fill the hearts of those they loved with sorrow and with pain
oh it’s less than three short weeks today they left their native sh0r-
but all, alas, they never returned to see their friends no more
to see their friends no more
but all, alas, they never returned to see their friends no more
the greenland sailed the tenth of march, her crew in spirits bright
not thinking that they should p-ss off on that fearful cold march night
and with a crew of fine young men who left in spirits g-y
stood brisk upon the barricade as she steamed out that day
they struck the seals st. patrick’s day and then the work began
with thirteen thousand hoist on board, seven thousand more did pan
on to the thirty-first of march, four watches less that day
a blinding snow storm soon came on and they got cast away
and they got cast away
a blinding snow storm soon came on and they got cast away
there’s two young quidi vidi boys, there’s chillie and court down
there’s william collins from torbay, and two from st. john’s town
the others from the northern bays and six from harbour grace
who on that wild and terrible night a fearful death did face
a fearful death did face
who on that wild and terrible night a fearful death did face
but may the great almighty god their troubles soon make light
and ease the broken hearts of those who lost their friends that night
who lost their friends that night
and ease the broken hearts of those who lost their friends that night
